Formula One is another step closer to being net-zero carbon by 2030, announcing on Monday that it will introduce 100% sustainable fuel in ’26 alongside the next-generation hybrid engines.
The pledge was made in 2019 as part of F1’s sustainability strategy, and the fuel is currently in the development phase. According to its announcement, “Whilst racing fuel represents less than 1% of our emissions, sustainable fuel is the area where F1 can have the greatest effect on the global transportation sector.”
The fuel will have a drop-in feature to assist with “accelerate adoption and reduce costs for use in existing road cars (both internal combustion engines and hybrids).
